From the wineries to the regional cuisine to the charming towns, Tuscany is one of Italy's most storied regions. Make a quick visit to a few of the most popular destinations in the area, or settle into your choice of Tuscany villas and explore this scenic region at a leisurely pace.

Tuscany's Mediterranean climate translates to warm summers and chilly winters. Visit in July or August, and you're bound to experience highs in the upper 80s and dry skies. Since this is high season in the region, you'll also find large crowds and long lines. You can beat the crowds by visiting in January, but you'll also find highs in the low 50s and plenty of rain. If you're looking for the ideal time to visit Tuscany, travel during the shoulder seasons. Spring and fall typically mean pleasant temperatures in the 70s and smaller crowds. Fall also marks the harvest season, so you can take your pick of wine-soaked festivals throughout the region.

How to get around Tuscany

Once you land at Pisa International Airport or Florence Airport, you can take your pick from two key transit options. If you plan to explore the region extensively, renting a car is a convenient way to get from most Tuscany villas to wineries or historic attractions. If you'd rather leave the driving to someone else, consider buying a rail pass and traveling from Florence to Siena to Cinque Terre and other popular destinations.

Things to do in Tuscany

Planning to spend time in Pisa? Don't miss the famous Tower of Pisa, an eye-catching landmark that you can admire from the outside or climb and view the city from the top.

Explore Florence's legendary artistic and architectural past with a visit to the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, better known as the Duomo.
